The, “Premiere,” version of Metro Parks Tacoma’s summer feeding program begins today. Kids get a free Subway lunch, and enjoyed supervised playground activities and fun. At three “Premiere,” locations the hours are extended until 5PM. Any child under 18 can get the lunch, and all programs are drop in. The complete list of locations and more information is here.

And, of course, library programs abound……young children will enjoy storytime with a community hero at the Puyallup Library Friday or a visit with an animal from the Point Defiance Zoo (sign up for that one). The Pierce County Library system has lots of computer activities for tweens today plus puppet shows for younger kids and juggling for everyone. You can check out any day or branch of your choosing right here.

What else? Wednesday afternoon concerts begin in Kent and Auburn this week. These are excellent, free shows with popular kids’ entertainers. Monday evening/Tuesday morning shows start in Bonney Lake, and Tuesday evening shows continue in Lacey. You can see the complete line up on my list here.

And, of course, cheap crafting, 1.00 movies, Bible schools, and camps, are all ongoing, too! If you’re new here, it’s a lot to take in, but I suggest you hover over “Summer,” in the menu bar! I also hope to have some exciting news about the calendar soon!
